Amen! When it came out, I was pretty disappointed that a car that looked like that was only compared to a non Turbo/GTx 911.

I also like the body painted blade.

Finally, an engine capable of pushing the chassis. Looks beautiful.

I saw some of the races of LP560 on m5board.com and damn that car is fast.

It raced a 997 turbo and crucified it

If you know about cars, you will know that a 997 turbo is no joke.

The LP560's new 5.2 V10 engine is also going to be used in the R8 (Duh...produced by Audi...same displacement). So I hope it's going to be as quick as the LP-560 even though it will have a detuned version of the 5.2 V10 (I'm guessing around 520-530hp)

Anyway "kudos" to Audi for finally making a R8 quick in the straightline too.
